Zune 120 Compatability -  - The new Zune 120GB will not fit into the base. The connection pin does not line up...
Poor Quality - Great idea -  - I have had this for several months now and I have to say when it worked, it was great - That was short lived. After a month and a half of use, the FM transmitter went out. This was not a problem in our new car since it is equipped with a line-in attachment and this device has a line-out connector on the bottom - very handy. Another 3 months later and this thing Totally dies, except it still charges the Zune, so it became a handy charge cradle. Transmition typically was weak but the ability to program a few presets was handy - Like I said I was happy with it while it worked but really disappointed when it failed - especially at the price they were asking.
Could be a whole lot better.. . . . - - We can't win, can we???
We, the people who just don't want ipods cannot win, can we?
I bought the Belkin FM Transmitter for the Zune. I'm in the suburbs, in New York. Power lines are everywhere. I try the default stations, nothing but static. I look for a random station with nothing on it. I can hear the music, but there's static over the music. It's like listening to AM radio. I unscrew the antennae from my car (not all cars have these, I got lucky), and I get much better reception. . . . .but only for SOME music. God forbid the album you're listening to was recorded before 1987 or has a lot of cymbals. You'll just hear a bunch of noise.
It's really a shame. It's possible to make a good FM Transmitter. Look at iTrip. Theirs work great. If only they'd make one for the Zune.
Don't bother with this one. It doesn't work well enough for it's price at all.
Not the worth the $$$ - - I've used other FM transmitters for years. When my latest one broke though, I decided that it would be nice to have a place to store my Zune other than my cupholder or lap. This product does hold and charge the Zune without problem, but the FM signal it puts out is so weak that I have to turn my radio all the way up to barely hear it. I tried the Belkin recommended stations as well as the other stations I sucessfully used in the past and use with my Sirius radio, but nothing would work. I emailed Belkin; I tried different lighter plugs. It didn't matter.
I ended up buying a tape adapter to use with this. The nice thing is there's a plug on the bottom to use it.
I live close to the middle of nowhere and that doesn't seem to matter with signal, so I would only recommend this product if you plan on buying a tape adapter or some other way of transmitting the signal manually and using this is a stand. It would have been nice to be able to easily move from car to car though.
Only works with the 30 GB - - Doesn't function on any other zune than the 30 GB. It doesnt say anything about that in the specs, so avoid this one if you have the 4 GB or 8 GB. I ordered 2 and neither one worked for me.
